I've heard of "black Irish", but you must be of the much rarer "Asian Irish" type.
@rhinosaur767 - ha, no. i'm pure asian...but my roommate was irish and it was march 17th!
@zubes5806 - Yes, I gathered as much from how you titled this picture. Of course on St Patrick's Day we're all Irish, so in a tortured logic kind of way, I wasn't completely off base.
@rhinosaur767 - ha, i guess not. although i think it would be amazing to be asian with an irish accent.
@zubes5806 - I checked the demographics for Ireland and 1.1% of the population is Asian, so it possible, though very rare. That would certainly throw people off--you'd get some looks when you first spoke.
There's an Asian stand up comic (whose name escapes me) who is from the South who does something like that when he speaks. He's of Korean descent, but he's got a Texas accent. He looks Korean and talks like a good old boy.
See now I think you should learn an Irish accent just to screw with peoples heads.
